Dinsun Review
Dinsun here. If you’ve played Head Soccer, you know exactly what this is. It’s mindless arcade fun with some absurd special moves. The variety of modes is impressive for a mobile title, but the 'free-to-play' walls start to close in early. You’ll be grinding for 'points' to unlock characters and costumes unless you want to open your wallet. The physics can be a bit wonky, which is typical for this series, but it’s fine for a quick match. It lacks the 'class' of a real sports sim, but as a time-waster, it’s serviceable.
